Duration: 46:47
In this episode, I’ve invited my friend Jun, who is currently working at “Ensure Finance,” to discuss his unexpectedly expansive and non-traditional career path. As a political science graduate, he didn’t limit himself to the confines of his major. Instead, he skillfully transformed his past experiences participating in political party activities and student clubs into practical skills for consulting and sales.
We delve into the true landscape and career prospects of NTU’s Department of Political Science [cite: 2, 3][cite_start], as well as his shocking experience interning in HR at a semiconductor company across the strait, where he witnessed firsthand what “extreme involution” truly means. This experience prompted him to decisively switch paths, leading him to a financial advisor role with no base salary, entirely commission-based, yet offering a high degree of lifestyle freedom.
Finally, Jun, former president of the NTU Tarot Club, also shared his future “metaphysical dream”: if he achieves financial freedom early, he wants to open a modern fortune-telling parlor combining Western magical themes. If you’re at a career crossroads or feeling exhausted by ineffective competition, the experiences shared in this episode will definitely help you debug your career!
